  • Although I wasn't born in Newfoundland, I live there now and now if I moved anywhere else, I'd feel like a part of me is missing. :D Newfoundland is the best!

  • I'm only an honours Newfie but the time spent there will live with me forever. I dream of returning someday to stay and live amongst the kindest and warmest people I've ever met. Oh, and Buddy Wasisname, The Navigators and Shanneyganock are awesome.

  • Thank you for posting this great song and these beautiful pictures Jay!

  • this song makes me think of everything i hold so dear !!!

  • beautiful video

  • yep, this song describes a beautiful life. I'm on the west coast of Florida, and I can't get used to it down here no matter what I try to do. That cold fresh air up there keeps me energized during the day, and when night time comes there is no better place in the world to sleep. Let it snow, let it snow, so what if I'm crazy. Gatta love it!

  • The first time I hear the song it makes me really teary eyed. I am a Fiipina and never been to Newfoundland but I know a great guy from Branch who means the world to me. I would love to spend my life with my blue eyes Newfi in Newfoundland anytime.

  • The mere thought of going back home makes my heart soar. I miss it so much and the lovely saltwater air <3

  • Beautiful

  • 1:11 reminds me of flat rock in st. Jonns.

  • Currently in the Royal Canadian Navy in Halifax but moving back to the island next August! : )

    Can't wait to get back home!

  • Im a 10 year old Newfie girl and even though i love music like lady gaga and ke$ha and stuff.. i still love good old newfoundland music ;)

  • @CaileysOriginals well, its good to hear that there is still some kids that like this msic. ima 14 year old newfie from the wast coast port a port area and i love this msic too. never stop listenin to this music, and youll never forget where you came from.. :D

  • I was looking for the guitar lesson for this song ,can anyone put it on for me .My newfie wife fav,song,must learn.See ya and catch you later...(will be in doghouse)...

  • I cried into my friend Tristan's shoulder when this song was sung at the campfire last week. Beautiful.

  • Newfoundland is a great place and will always be my home. Once i'm done school i'm probably going to have to go away for some work experience but i will be back as soon as possible. All you mainlanders or anyone who thinks they are better than us, you would fall in love with this place if you came here and honestly you can go fuck yourselves because we don't want you here anyways. I AM A NEWFIE

  • I miss home so bad

  • this song makes me so sad, i miss home so much . thank for making this amazing video!

  • miss home so muc, thanks for posting!

  • Sometimes I wish I was from somewhere else, but this video makes me realize how lucky I am to be from such a special place. I love it here and I hope I'll never leave for good.

  • A Few weeks ago I came to Toronto, because I thought Newfoundland wasn't good enough for me anymore. I thought there was nothing to do, and I was always stuck on how there was nowhere where I could spend alot of money on "Modern day toys" . Just a few days ago, I started to find out how depressed I really am up here in the huge city. I'm really homesick, and sorry that I ever left. I was supposed to stay up here for a long time, but I think I'm gonna go back home in a week or two.Love The Rock♥

  • @RocketeerNinja You went to the wrong place,Toronto is no longer the land of plenty son.Go to Alberta,big bucks to be made and lots of Newfies to keep you company

  • i love this song it reminds me of my pop who past 2 years ago he was a bay men

  • i like this song

  • i miss home so much thank you

  • This song brings back memories. I used to listen to it with my pop and my dog around.. my pop passed away from triple by-pass, and my dog was put down yesterday.. God, it hurts to listen to this song, but I love it. Good memories. Rest in peace pop and prince and Eddie </3 I loveyou guys.

  • thanks for posting this great song and these beautiful pics Jay. I consider myself one of the lucky brokeass newfies who never had to leave !

  • @bpr6hs here's too all us brokeass newfies! :D

  • @bpr6hs Brokeass or whatever, you should be proud of being one of them. People there are amazingly fantastic:friendly, welcoming and kind. Makes me wonder if it's even part of Canada lol.(not because people from other parts of Canada are bad or anything but because "newfies" are just outstanding in that department.) And the land, just wow.

  • NFLD 500+years we were some of the firsts to waljk away from the elites hence republic of newfoundland

  • This sounds a bit like Irish music

  • @nmgscp it's newfoundland music. This is WHAT nfld music is like.

  • @nmgscp thats cause our accents really similar to the irish, considering many of our ancestors were irish :)

  • God love Newfoundland and Labrador, the best place to live in the world.

  • im singing this song for my spring cocert wish me and the others luck !!

  • This song is buried deep in my heart, I know all the lyrics whenever I hear it even though i've only heard it a few times. <3

  • I am a Newfoundlander. I been in Ontario for years, i stills misses home alot.thank you for this video i love this song.

  • we are the heart..and soul...if theres somthing to be done we'd be the first to volunteer us out there...and i'd be there too to protect it ...im a proud Canadian..and a Newfoundlander..

  • i dont cry but ... i am . i showed my this song when we moved from newfoundland to alberta

    im going to sing it for my school spring play

    sorry for the bad spelling

  • i love this video! i moved away from st. john's a little over 3 years ago and i keep coming back to this video for my newfie fix lol.

  • enyone with heart to understand this song coulnt care less about what you have ..becouse enyone who truely feels and understands this tune would gladly giverything the have to go back .the things that stay in memory are not possesions its places and times not cars and shyt and by the way my bud just bought a Shelby and he paid cash and what adose it mean? what will you remember do you member that time i deove and paid $40 in gas to go to the store and that time i ,,umm drove ..what ever .

  • hay dung2stupid you have nothing ,are nothing and likely couldnt find 2 ppl to carry your casket so enytime you wont to hit K-tawn ontario ill gladly speed up your need to get your head knocked off...you are nothing but a pompas looser with nothing better to do the piss ppl off for your own self ,to gain a little self comfidance you so lack

    Dong

    Chinese guy dumps on me.

    I lived in China 6 yrs, Saudi 3, Caribbean/ s America 8, Europe etc.

    U got a car, I got two planes and stuff u'll never have. You want to be wrapped in glory but i want to remember where I came from . I love those who didn't move and especially those who believed they didn't have to.

    So drive your car and call us what names you want...saltwater/happy, car etc/happy whats the difference.

    Next time you come home give me a ride.

  • Awesome job!!

    Who doesn't love the ocean? The smell of the salt water, the men fishing, the women boating with them in the evenings...picnics on a "salt water beach" IS a Salt Water Joy! Thank you for reminding me of my home that I want to return to one day. Please, no more negative comments about a beautiful culture & a people that are known Canadawide as the friendliest in Canada, among other things:)

  • Thank you so much for this video ... Bawled my eyes out !! Great pictures. 

  • You sure you have complete peace? Why did you go to Alberta? Don't worry, won't be long before the old problems resurface and you'll be looking Westward again.

  • Absolutly amazing.Song and the pictures are just perfect !!! i ll definitely visit new foundland this autumn or 2012 spring.If anyone knows where is this pictures has taken from in 0:26 and 2:50 please let me know.Thanks...

  • I'm proud to be a newfoundlander there is no place i would rather be .

  • Being in Fort McMurray it's not so bad being away from home because there's so many Newfies here. but when I listen to this song, always gives a lil heartache.

  • Awesome photos!Always loved this song.Puts me right back in Newfie!

  • @ben10150 hey ben, sorry to reply to you so late. as you can see, in most parts of the video there are actually many different cities other than those in Newfoundland. these modern day cities were a contrast to a serene and peaceful "mosiac" (if you will) of rural Newfoundland. these pictures were only put in this video for that reason only. now that i think about it, its a little ridiculous that you could only pinpoint that one instance at which that occurs. wow.

  • @JayBrew391 i posted that comment before i finished the video, which i shouldn't have because i do recognize the other places and probably would have realized what you were doing.

  • good work im from carbonear.

  • @ben10150

    I love this song and in the video i see the comparisions. This song is about choices. Those of us who left had no choice or were afraid to make the choice to stay - I was one of them. There are many successful Newfies on the island as well as away as there are poor on the island and away off the island. I left at 17 - and I am going back at 60. I have property where I am and back home. I am a very proud Newfoundlander and many have congratulated me on such.

  • lol what are you talking about? i dont care how and if you "get ahead" you donkey

  • @dong2phat4u WHAT EVER... silly mind you got...me son.

  • @dong2phat4u hey douchebag! sorry it took so long, i was too busy being a brokeass newfie!

    first off my man, shelby gt500 wer'se first popularized in the 60's, so good job on your modern toy. what's

    it like being 120 years old?

    have fun on your drive big dog! if i were to judge, the rule on the internet is thatf if you post your posessions on the internet to boast and condescend, usually you are one of two things: 1) You are lying. you are talking about things you wish you had a

  • Comment removed

  • @dong2phat4u nd you put down others in the same situation as you. 2)You are a pitiful yet moderately successful person that no one enjoys yet you still feel the urge to look up a newfoundland slideshow on Youtube and talk about how successful you are. I Understand the lobster pot mentality! but i'm dragging you down at all; you sir, are the one coming to a video of Newfoundland and being the one dragging everyone else down. you're pathetic. have fun in your shelby.

  • @dong2phat4u Your just an idiot .

    Thats all i really have to say to you .

  • @ilovebradley1324 I consider myself one of the smart ones. While eveyone else was hopeful and optimistic about the future, I saw the writing on the wall and got the fuck out. 20 years later, there's still 15% unemployment and the only ones making any money are people with connections to the unions and government. Same old shit, different day. Any young men reading this post, heed my warning and leave.

  • @dong2phat4u we all shouldhave listened to u..we would all be a better people..someday i hop i canbe just likeu...bragging on youtube abouyt what i have in life..more to life than positions...have fun drivingin your shelby all by yourself....

  • @ilovebradley1324 You're....That's. Get an education.

  • @dong2phat4u Sorry what ? . By the way your talking about newfoundlanders i have no idea what your saying

  • @dong2phat4u @JayBrew391 Put your differences aside b'ys, we all live our own lives, some outside the province and some within. We can all agree that this is a beautiful song, so lets just enjoy it! This is my 2nd year now in Montreal, and Buddy Wassisname got it right for sure! I miss the warm, friendly atmosphere and the people back home!

  • @dong2phat4u why dontu stay in taiwan ..boy arent u proud of yourself...maybe u should get a few of the famous taiwan hookers while u r at it..

  • @newfiefab I live in Taiwan, a modern, advanced nation. In fact, that big building you see at 2:32 of this video is right here. It's the Taipei 101. This place is famous for technology, the industry I work in, not hookers. You're confused with Thailand. Typical Newfie. Thinks he lives in the best place in the world, yet knows little about the rest of it.

  • @dong2phat4u bud u r clueeless ..nobody cares about u..or your life..must not be that great having to comeon here putting other people andplaces down...if u dont like the place that much why do u come to watch the videos...u r just a braggart...geta life....

  • @dong2phat4u your a fag, true newfies know that money dont buy happiness.

  • @dong2phat4u your a fag, true newfies know that money dont buy happiness. And you know what. I tried alberta, and i am going home, because its nothing compared to Newfoundland. No money is worth Newfoundland, anyway i aint going to let you get to me. I pity that you dont understand what its like to have complete peace with a place.

  • Based on your grammar, I highly doubt you have made it anywhere in life. I am willing to bet you are a college drop-out that posts comments on youtube to make your life appear significant to others. You disgust me.

  • @TheGAMEBOY1989

    Based on where you live, I doubt you've done much with your life. And this is YouTube, not English class. BTW, that's YouTube with a capital "Y" and "T" hotshot.

  • @dong2phat4u

    I don't recall telling you my origins. Maybe you merely assume I'm from Newfoundland. Whatever be the case, I would like to thank you for picking up on the two typing errors, it shows you may be an intelligent college drop-out after all.

  • @dong2phat4u How dare you call us brokeasses, people like us have gotten you to where you are, sorry we live on an island surrounded by water where we can't have as many kinds of work, sorry were a low populated province, sorry we have a accent, sorry, but son lemme tell you something, we work harder then any other person in canada, and another thing is we aint getting paid enough for the amount of work we put into out job so honestly, i hope you burn to the ground,

  • @dong2phat4u Hahaha, I'd also like to see you car, because it's probably bullshit anyways, this is a site where no one knows who you are,and of that you can say whatever you want and know one would know if you were telling the truth or not, but i know it's not true because you are to "phat" for me and you are tp "phat" to work for a living you darkhearted asswipe.

  • @dong2phat4u i hope you gt500 exploder with you in it you fagity ass dick fuck

  • I haven't lived in Newfoundland for 20 years. Still live by the ocean and making barrels of money. Couldn't make a penny in Newfoundland. Not a penny. Sentiment doesn't pay the bills.

  • @dong2phat4u well, thank you for your cynical opinion....i dont remember asking for your sentiment!

Well besides people making fun of us cause we're called "Newfie's" but people also think we're some of the nicest people you could ever meet and I love that. And sure the weaether sucks, bad, most of the time, it's still such a beautiful place. Haha Newfoundland ftw! :D <3

  • I'm a newfoundlander, born and bred and i'll be one til i die. I'm proud to be an islander and heres the reason why. I'm free as the wind and the waves that wash the sand. There's no place i would rather be; than here in newfoundland ♥
